my daughter loves her motorized Schwinn

Hey Y'all! It's going to be fun for daughter: she loves the independence offered by this new motorized bike. We got this motor from CycleHappy.com I believe, slapped it on her old bicycle the same day with an hour or two of wrenching. I let her do most of the work, helping a little here and there; it was fun to help her learn about tools and mechanics.

I hope to get her to join the forum here too. I think it's going to be a positive experience. Glad to be here!

I just checked out cyclehappy.com, and their prices are outrageous. Almost $800 for a robin subaru with shift kit. I built an entire custom bike for not much more, with a 98cc 4 stroke minibike engine. I'm glad you got this bike going for your daughter, but I'm sorry (for you) that you paid so much to do so.

The Honda engine I bought from CycleHappy is mighty cute, cost $488.72 with shipping; it was a engine and rear wheel drive roller setup combined. I like the centrifugal clutch a lot; the little red engine is quiet and runs smooth.

The kits are great I've got a Staton Inc kit myself. The company you're dealing with is buying these kits from Staton Inc and reselling them. Deal with David Staton directly and save yourself some money. It would be different if the guy had built a whole bike for you using a Staton kit.

I'm just telling you this because in time you'll want to make improvements and/or need to do some repairs. I've got the only bike in the world that shifts 5 gears automatically.
